BBQ Ocean Trout
Ingredients:
1 ocean trout (not more than 2 kg)
2 tomatoes
1/4 cup mayonnaise
A bunch of fresh dill
Salt, pepper
1 teaspoon minced horseradish
Optional: 1 tablespoon minced garlic
Cooking:
1. Chop the tips of the dill and put the stems aside. Mix the mayonnaise with dill, horseradish, garlic, salt and pepper. Using your hands rub the fish inside out with the 2/3 of the mayonnaise mixture.
2. Slice tomatoes, lay the slices inside the fish along with the remaining dill sprigs and mayonnaise mixture.
3. Wrap the whole fish in the aluminium foil and if possible leave it aside for 30 minutes, for better results the fish needs to be at room temperature to start a cooking process.
4. BBQ on medium-high heat, less than 200C. Calculate the timing, approximately 1.5 minute per 500g on each side. For example, 2kg fish 6 minutes on each side.
5. Alternatively the fish can be baked at 185C. For 2kg fish bake for about 50 minutes.
